Re: relativistic judgments on software development
So many judgments about software and software products are based on weighing relative strengths and weaknesses of the effect of a particular decision on very different factors. I.e. doing it this way will help me ship about a week sooner, but will hurt usability a lot.
Consequently a lot of disputes are centered around not only how much weight you give each factor, but that there are an infinite number of factors to consider and any one person can only think of so many. People can knock a project or task on its ear by introducing new, unconsidered factors into a decision. Depending on their ability to find & articulate what really is the most important factor, this can be good, or it can just be a way to create chaos & manifest a personality disorder.
